Multi-instrumentalist, composer, philosopher and vocalist Neo Muyanga defies definition. One of the first musicians to gain international status in South Africa’s new democracy, his sound is indistinguishable from compassion, collective and connection.
"Don't leave me blind, 'cause I'm afraid of not seeing
Don't leave behind, this baby born in a taxi "
About “Born in a Taxi” Neo Muyanga says it has taught him about the courage required to make oneself vulnerable to love. At the same time as an anthem for South Africa’s new democracy, “Born in a Taxi” is an anthem for the African continent.
